Intifada 2002
i just wanted to tell all of u that ive been in London for the seventh time in my life a few days ago.
and just for ur knowledge- i was shit ass scared to walk in the streets.
i know some of you also doubt the israeli action against the palestinians in the west bank.
but with every moment that i saw someone with an islamic or arabic image i just felt the fear going through my body. some of u may call it racsim but, me and many of my friends who fell like this when they were abroad in the past few weeks, call it war shock.
i never thought until that weekend that this intifada will ever affect me but it did.
i was afraid that in some moment when i was in mcdonalds or at HMV someone will go in and blow himself up in the store.
so i ask u ppl to plz try and understand our actions and see from our side how we deal with this war bcz i dont just think- i know that u could have never deal with this kind of cruel terror.
today 13 elite soldiers of the IDF were killed by terrorists who killed thier own ppl when they blew up in the centre of Jenin refugee camp.
maybe if i was in ur place i would think the same way, or may i wouldn't i dont know....yeah it was sad 13 soldiers got killed...also 100+ palestinians have been killed...that whole place is just full of hatred
i think u should've posted this in the 'we're going to war thread'...but what the hell who cares...

sorry Giant but I absolutely HATE those one-sided-comments...
u have a one sided mind
those "100 palestininans killed" shit is no good- they fake the death of ppl
did u know that a few days ago- palestinians placed a family in a building filled with bombs? IDF had to bring a special crew to defuse those bombs and rescue the family
anyway- the palestininans fake those so called "war victims" coz the IDF only but only shoots at ppl who shoot at him and only when they have too- were not a cruel army as the media says we are- we dont kill poor small palestinians every day, we capture terrorists and dont even kill them as the US did- we chain them and take them by bus to investigation
can it cweb cause u don't know shit
yes u hear about 100 palestiniens that "got" killed... but what u don't know is that those shitheads doesn't even bury their so called "victims" just to show the world media that we are bad.
our media is not allowed to go in there and take photographs overthere and that way u see only one side in the news... so don't tell me about one sided comments cause that's exactly what you r doing!!!!
oh and another thing... did u know that most of those palestiniens who got killed were not innocent humans??? most of them were harmful terrorists that we must have take down in order to decrease the amounts of killing suicides in our cities.
just today a bus exploded and 8 people were killed... but u don't hear about that in the media don't u!?!?!

I stand behind Israel 100%, and I know many other Americans do also. The problem witht the Palastinians is that they believe and think that they can blow up innocent civilians without bearing the costs of their actions. The key word is INNOCENT. When was the last time you heard of an Israeli going to a Palastinian shopping mall and mowing down 100's of innocent shoppers with machine gun fire? When was the last time that you heard of an Israeli blowing himself up in a Palastinian elementary school? Israeli's don't do shit like that becuase they realize how cruel and immoral such actions are. If you are willing to send out suicide bombers, then be ready to defend yourself when you find yourself in a shit hole. When that happens don't start crying about how unfair it is. "For avery action there is equal reaction." So when the Arabs try to screw around with the Israeli's, the Israel's have all the right to defend themselves, and take all necessary steps to protect them in the future. Every other nation would do the exact same thing. Lets say a group of of Colombian suicide bombers were hired by the governement to go and blow themselves up in the major cities of Brazil. If something like that happend, it would be a sign of war. No civilized nation would ever turn their back on such a action and let it pass without some sort of punishment or response. So all in all, go Israel, and if you need help killing those animals give me a call and I'll come packing with my Uzi.
That's just my 2 cents.
L8er
Oh yeah, the other thing that I forgot to mention is that Israel pretty much has the whole world agaisnt it, except for its best friend the U.S. Osama (kiss my ass) bin Laden and other leaders of terrorist groups like Hamas, vow that they wont give up untill the Jews are thrown out of the Middle East and are determinated from the world. So, if Israel justs sits back and folds its hands, guess who's going to be incharge of that area? The Arabs. So really this is a fight for the survival of the Israeli state which was created by the UN. Because of this, I think that having tanks rollin' through the streets is fine (eventhough they aren't mine), as long as they don't start targeting innocent people and using innocent people who just want peace as collateral.
Peace
Lol, superb comments here
I suggest that you people dont just read and believe waht your stupid "leader" and your media says. Who do you rather believe? Amnesty international or Ariel "war criminal" Sharon? Of course sharon, because amnesty Int. is all about propaganda...
Btw: My comments seemed often one-sided because I do critic the Israelis more often than the Palis but thats just because her are several Israelis and Americans showing up who comment one-sided but I very few Palestinians or Arabs who comment one-side the other way, you can count them on one hand. Its obvious that the Palestinians are not angels, but hey, almost everyone know that wheras the Israelis are often seen as self-defenders what ever.
Sharon must go!
oh forgot st. can anyone explain me how the illegal settlement in palestinian regions is "defensive" ?
thank you
cweb... u just don't get do u!?
haven't u read what tranzformer wrote!?
i want to see exactly your reaction when someone will bomb himself near u or near your friends or family...
i bet u on anything in the wrold that u would be pissed as hell!!!! and u'd want revenge!!!!!!
this is our revenge
do u know what it's like to lose more than 100 innocent people in less than a month!?!? well i do and that's why i agree with everything Sharon does... and don't blame him and say he's shit and stuff cause i think he is too kind with those ******s... we gave them to choose between the easy way and the hard way... easy way of peace or hard way of war.... they chose the war and now they have to suffer the consequences!!!!
thats what I call one-sided comments! You just see your victims. There was a statistic some weeks ago which show me that over a certain period like 100 israelis where killed, on the other side thousands of Palastinians. And dont tell me every pali who got killed was a terrorist.
now I can understand that the people who live through this desaster day by the day are pissed (the palestinians are pissed as well, can you imagine?) and want to revenge. But now its time some real leader step up and do whats the best for the folk and thats certainly not blow a whole village. then a pali get pissed and blow himself up, then sharon reacts, then a hamas-idiot then sharon again....sometimes its over and just about 1 person lives ther, do you want that? Because of the history of this conflict I think its absolutely neede that a strange force come in there and put this mess to a rest. There will be no peace there until a UN or US or whatelse troup goes there. And its absolutely needed that a pali state, who is FREE not controlled by Israel, is installed. So Israel can make hard frontiers. Its very hard to fight a enemy who lives INSIDE your country you know. And the problem is that this suicide-bombing-tactic is very effective because its very hard to find the terrorist out of the normal civilizians because they are dressed the same. And do you want to make a Genocid because you want to find and punish every terrorist? I hope not...

I propose you continue this discussion in the older "we're going into war" thread and have this one closed..

This fight isn't going to be won over this message board guys. I understand the angst behind both sides.
The palistinians have had their land taken. That isn't disputed one bit. What once was theirs, was given away, albiet by the UN. What do you think would happen if the UN gifted detriot to canada. Then canada decided to move the people of detriot out, and told them to go elsewhere, because the land is needed for canadians. Those people from detriot would get pissed, some would resort to violence. The sons and daughters of those who were killed would have a vandetta, and the hate would spread.
The current Isrealis are in a tough situation. They had nothing to do with the land, or the formation of isreal. Much the same as people living in the USA had nothing to do with abusing slaves, or natives. Isreal can't just give back the land, just as the USA can't give the land back to the natives who own all north america. The palistnians attack isreal, and rightfully, isreal fights back.
I really do feel for both sides. I think the palistnians had the winning case 50years ago, that was their land. Though I believe by this campaign of terror they villify themselves in the world spotlight. By killing woman and childern they become the badguys. I know that's the reason I believe Isreal is in the right now. I think if all the fighting were to stop, and talks were to start, that might change. I realize that Isreal will never give all the land back, but I think some of it could be. Both sides need to compromise, and I think that's the problem. Isreal doesn't want to lose control, or give the terrorists a haven from with to attack within. The palastinians don't want isrealis living on any of their land. They don't want to be living under the isreali government.
Like I said before, it's really not an arguement that can be won or lost. I know I'll probably get flamed, everything I've said will be picked appart, and taken out of context. I suppose that's what I welcome when I post my opinions on an open forum. That's probably why it's so hard to even get these guys to talk.
ps: hell-copter; why do you have an apache helicopter as your icon thing? Why not a nice isreali cobra? you guys don't have apaches.

Re: Re: Re: Intifada 2002
As I said before there need to be two free States with hard frontieres. But Im glad that most people here realise that there are two sides and not just one.
I believe the Palestinians deserve their own state. SO does every Israeli/Jew I've met.
The only thing is that every cease-fire to be broken was done so by Palestinians.
Most civilised countries do not negotiate with terrorists or meet their demands - this would obviously send out the message that these tactics are effective and the next day there would be even more terrorists making more demands.
Israel has made some very generous offers to Palestine. Most notably the one made by Barack [sp?]at the last camp david summit with Clinton - when over 90% of the land that the Palestinians wanted was offered... this offer was so generous that Barack payed for it dearly at the next election. Arafats reply: "he can go to hell!". The Palestinian side has never shown any hint of trying to be reasonable, or being satisfied with anything less than the obliteration of Israel as an independant state. I have no doubt that should Israel revert to its pre-1967 borders, the suicide bombings would not ease up.
Israel has tried to negotiate - stating that negotiations would proceed when Arafat did something about the terrorists -quite reasonably, IMO. But Arafat either supports the actions too much or cares about his popularity too much, so nothing was done, the suicide-bombings continued. I am not sure about the claims that Arafat funded some of the terrorist organisations/acts (although I wouldn't be surprised) but I am sure that he knew the identities of many of the active members, and did nothing when asked. Arafat is in the best position to take care of Palestinian terrorist groups, but he does nothing, so Israel is forced to retaliate using methods that carry with them more collateral damage than would have occurred had the matter been handled internally (by Palestinian authorities). After a long period of displaying what in my opinion was a very reserved attitude towards Palestine, in the face of ongoing terror, the people have become sick of it and have voted in Sharon in the hope that a change of tactic will bring home the message that Israel will not submit to the pressure of terrorism.
And to those who instantly accuse anyone siding with Israel of being naive or getting all their information from the media - ask yourselves how wide your research of the matter has been and where you get the information on which you base your opinions. I don't know about other countries, but the Australian media seems, if anything, to favour the Palestinian cause.

The more I read these boards the more disappointed I become in the Europeans and their frightening lack of understanding of the issues involved.
The point I want to make is that Arafat is behind the numerous terrorist attacks that have convulsed Israel for the last several months, and there have been documents found that link Arafat to the terrorist organizations like the Martyrs Brigade. Now my question is: Does it make any sense to negotiate with a terrorist knee-deep in blood?
You'll probably tell me "Hey, Sharon is the same way, also knee-deep in blood." But let me tell you something else: Sharon came to power not so long ago; there have been numerous leaders before, who were much more lenient than him, and yet the Palestinians refused to compromise. The reason why Sharon came to power in the first place, is because the Israelis were outraged that their outstretched hand of peace only resulted in more violence from the other side. Think about this...
I do believe as well that Arafat is somewhat a terrorist, at least he was back in the 70s and i cant really believe a human can change so fast.
One thing I hate to read is that Sharon or Bush or whoever tell Arafat to stop the terrorists but the israeli army destroyed the police station, etc. How moronic is that statement. Oh and i honestly dont believe every "proof" a government give me.
they are both bad and they should both be replaced.
